It's actually pretty funny cause Cyborg Superman was revealed to be Zor-El towards the later half of "Superman Doomed" but everyone dropped that title after 5 issues, So no one knew about the reveal and at the DC Rebirth Wonder-Con panel Steve Orlando started talking about the reveal as if everyone knew but the audience gasped when he said it because it was the first time they had heard it and Steve Orlando's face just went white lol
I get the feeling that Sal wants to live in a world with Boom Tubes and inter dimensional travel. Also Ben was on fire this episode and that's always awesome
Well she IS WONDER woman. As in, I wonder if she's cold, I wonder if her armor would freeze and stick to her if she started sweating, I wonder if Amazons get cold, etc.....
oh and Ferro/Ferro Lad in pre-crisis did the same thing with self sacrifice but instead of waiting for Superman to say his good byes he sucker punched supeboy(sliver age) and then flew into the star eater to blow up a bomb....this comic is a remake of that story, just now set on earth.... and the dusk storyline added.
Yeah and I wish he kept that bad ass mullet he looks so much cooler with long hair it gave him a bit of some swag then the haircut that he had for like 80 years.
Been watching for almost a year, and I gotta say, I love you guys. However, I must also say that, not joking here, I'm an unabashed Legion fan, and Ferro is one of my favorite super heroes of all time. I'm serious.
ComicPOP okay so what the hell was up with my boy ben? i felt he was being more annoying and dickish then usual, i found myself yelling at him during certain points when he would cut the conversation to be snarky and to me somewhat of an ass. anyway great video
I wish you guys had more time to do more videos and more of the old skit videos too. I can't believe you don't have a million subs. People need to be sharing the heck out of your videos.
up until the last arc of the series Supergirl was one of my favorite titles from new 52. its a shame more people didn't give it a chance. i liked pissed off emotionally damaged supergirl
"Superman is the most suicidal... of the group" WHY ARE WE IGNORING THE FACT BATMAN HAS AN OUTRIGHT DEATHWISH....multiple times he has done the whole "I am going to make the heroic sacrifice" move..... when Superman was available and lived only because Superman saved him when the original plan is for Superman to do whatever it was and Superman could escape in time because of his speed. Meaning the argument that he cant let him sacrifice himself because Superman does the greater good doesnt even work.
Hal Jordan reigniting the sun to save humanity would've been a really cool way for him to die if he hadn't murdered so many people when he became Parallax. It would be like if Barry Allen killed a bunch of people before he RAN SO FAST that he saved the Multiverse. It diminishes the heroism.
Parallax has so much vaguely defined power, he can make hsi own fan fiction in story. GL rebirth is just the start of Hal's fanfiction as he hangs out in the sun.
Hey Sal, so I sent you a package on 1/20, so it should have been there abit ago. That has a legion of superheroes book in it. So you can regale the guys with more great moments from the legion while they battle the dominators.
11:41 Gotta agree with Ben on this one. While I respect those that enjoy it, I've always hated Mister Miracle's suit design, especially the exposed mouth part of the mask. It's like a gimp suit at a clown convention.
The Spectre is an asshole. At least Deadman (who is seriously unappreciated) has no choice not to interfere, he’s like Death from Discworld, but Spectre is just sitting in his little space cloud and eating potato chips.
comic writers have no clue of how stars work😂 Final Night is not the only story with scientific inaccuracies, In Secret Wars Doom turns Johny Storm into the sun in battleworld
You gotta love the "No, that is not possible. I'm putting my foot down on this one!" moment Ethan has when they got to the talk of the artificial sun.
"Here's a plan! Why don't we shoot the Ray, Ferro Lad, Dusk, and the rest of the Legion into the Sun?"
"How will that reignite it?"
"Reignite it?"
Let’s send Pandora and Telos while we’re at it.

Oof
This is amazing
"It's gonna be a long episode." -Ethan
Got a real good laugh out of me already. Gonna be a good episode too.
Ethans just in denial of everything in this episode except for when Hal Jordan kills Cyborg Superman. "YES!"
"John Stewart is in a hospital waiting to die and Hal is like 'What Up'- Sals recap of that scene had me dying.
"None of this is a real fucking thing!"
-Sal, 2017
2:03 has my favorite interaction I totally forgot about until a rewatch. Tambourinians and Tamaranians
I get the feeling that Sal wants to live in a world with Boom Tubes and inter dimensional travel. Also Ben was on fire this episode and that's always awesome
I knew this episode would be amazing when Ben talked about the Tambourine-ians
I almost died from laughing too hard
i love your guys use of the zoom in . it makes the comedic moments even better
Anyone find it weird that the tv image has batman and superman using their capes to keep warm and wonder women is just like "nah"
And flash and kyle
Well she IS WONDER woman.
As in, I wonder if she's cold, I wonder if her armor would freeze and stick to her if she started sweating, I wonder if Amazons get cold, etc.....
Batman is just a guy, and Superman is depowered. WW GL and Flash can all counteract the cold.
Warmer Woman
The tamaranian's have a new planet? Wonder how long it took them to find the dragon balls.
Grievousish Bout a year
It's Over 9000 Productions pretty impressive given i doubt they had the dragon radar
Roberto Sauma oh so beast boy had it.
Grievousish lol
Grievousish lol
6:11 Ethan actually becomes interested in the outcome of the story
50:12 Hey, Sal where is that Batman: No Mans Land Back Issues? Been a good minute, lol.
Oh God, I thought it said "final episode" for some reason. I almost had a heart attack.
The final episode would have to be Holy Terror doing a crossover with the entire weekly pull cast and Linkara
Grievousish live
Grievousish or grant Morrison's The Filth, let's just watch as their collective sanity's melt away
Grievousish Oh god...
Don't worry, they'll just reboot it and condense everything you like into like… a year.
oh and Ferro/Ferro Lad in pre-crisis did the same thing with self sacrifice but instead of waiting for Superman to say his good byes he sucker punched supeboy(sliver age) and then flew into the star eater to blow up a bomb....this comic is a remake of that story, just now set on earth.... and the dusk storyline added.
Everyone was on fire in this episode. Great stuff.
sick in bed and its raining out...been binge watching back issues all day. life is great. thanks comicpop family
Superman has some glorious hair
Immonen, and the other Super-titles' artists at the time, knew how to draw Superman with a long hair... not a mullet.
Yeah and I wish he kept that bad ass mullet he looks so much cooler with long hair it gave him a bit of some swag then the haircut that he had for like 80 years.
love when ethan gets physical. great show as always Comicpop family...thank you
“Like everyone favorite version of Superman.”
YES
Been watching for almost a year, and I gotta say, I love you guys. However, I must also say that, not joking here, I'm an unabashed Legion fan, and Ferro is one of my favorite super heroes of all time. I'm serious.
Yay, Ethan isn't dead in a ditch somewhere!
Nope! He's only on the one show, so you can count on him not being around quite a bit, like usual!
ComicPOP okay so what the hell was up with my boy ben? i felt he was being more annoying and dickish then usual, i found myself yelling at him during certain points when he would cut the conversation to be snarky and to me somewhat of an ass. anyway great video
Mike Rodgefs ben is a gentleman and a scholar how dare u sir how dare you
don't stop Ben, never stop.
SomeFriendlessBastard I think Ben only works part time now because we see him so rarely
OH how I missed Ethan's "goddamn it". Great work guys can't wait for more!
Yay! It's The Legion! I Hope We Eventually Cover More Legion Of Superheroes In The Future
I wish you guys had more time to do more videos and more of the old skit videos too. I can't believe you don't have a million subs. People need to be sharing the heck out of your videos.
How the hell do you guys not have over 100k+ subs already? You deserve it
11:30 snowing in Kansas isn't a weird thing it happens almost every year
Maybe not in the most recent years but it does happen
But Kansas weather is some of the weirdest so theirs that
Issac Hernandez I think this happened in the Summer/Spring.
Cyborg superman was supergirls dad before rebirth it was in her new 52 comic series that it was established but no one cared lol
up until the last arc of the series Supergirl was one of my favorite titles from new 52. its a shame more people didn't give it a chance. i liked pissed off emotionally damaged supergirl
ThePandaSupreme yep it's true and I get a feeling that cyborg superman is going to die
The opening took on a whole new meaning after watching the Tangents you just released!
Why is Ethan so smart, does he have a different science job, or is he just inexplicably smart?
I *think* he's involved in physics in some fashion.
Though I've no real idea.
Tyler Cash I have an undergraduate degree in Physics
I feel like a lot of Tangents came out of this episode lol
He certainly does. What that is I am unsure. But he certainly speaks science.
Ethan what is your job?
Noticed your copy of Attack on Titan isn't where it usually is... Maybe Tiff is refreshing her memory for an episode of Back Issues.
She needs to re-receive a grim reminder...
She has said to me that she'd like to do it on Back Issues actually.
Geek Mangacomic tiff replied positively when I asked for some manga
Ben has got my interest in mind for the final night.
12:12 - 12:19 lmao 😂😂
Another good episode. Glad to see Ethan back.
I really liked this one. I'd like to see you do more stuff from the 90s on Back Issues.
Sal is an award-winning Podcaster. Can we mention this at the beginning of every video for a week? Congrats!
another great Back Issues episode, awesome work ComicPOP
My only regret is that Im out of Back Issues to watch, and I desperately want more!
Why didn't firestorm just transmute the sun eater
"This is Sun eater"
Well, that's clearly Earthbound's final boss... Ness is DC?
Nice! but... we need to get physical with Ethan!!
I'm Paul, Paul, and Paul. Thanks a lot for the episode! Seriously, thank you so much!
13:08 darkseid is a great many things, but, on apocalypse, he is god
I'm just really curious, are you guys ever going to do Hickman Fantastic Four?
"Superman is the most suicidal... of the group"
WHY ARE WE IGNORING THE FACT BATMAN HAS AN OUTRIGHT DEATHWISH....multiple times he has done the whole "I am going to make the heroic sacrifice" move..... when Superman was available and lived only because Superman saved him when the original plan is for Superman to do whatever it was and Superman could escape in time because of his speed. Meaning the argument that he cant let him sacrifice himself because Superman does the greater good doesnt even work.
11:28 I live in kansas and can confirm it snows here, does that mean the world will end soon?
How do you depict the spirit of the earth? Ask the captain planet creators....😅
1:57-2:22 are like the most quintessential 25 seconds of Back Issues
I think it's funny that the funnest episodes are the ones with crappy stories
No mans land! Can't wait, great idea guys! :-D
Hal Jordan reigniting the sun to save humanity would've been a really cool way for him to die if he hadn't murdered so many people when he became Parallax.
It would be like if Barry Allen killed a bunch of people before he RAN SO FAST that he saved the Multiverse. It diminishes the heroism.
Nah, that’s a different Cyborg Superman. And then the first one came back. That’d be a fun team up...
Seems like Parallax is always the go to Deux Ex Machina in DC, everytime an event goes out of control, the writers go to him.
Parallax has so much vaguely defined power, he can make hsi own fan fiction in story. GL rebirth is just the start of Hal's fanfiction as he hangs out in the sun.
Ron Marz. Have you read his and Stjepan Sejic's Witchblade run.
I actually liked this story when I first read it a few years ago. Reminded of that Twilight Zone episode.
Flash had something in the Mark Waid run, pretty much just him running and saving people from a new Ice Age
awwww....this brings back memories...the 90's...when i was still a DC guy all the way thru & thru.... then THE ULTIMATES happened.
Love this story, first comic book i've ever read
Great episode guys. Everyone is having tons of fun with this story!
Great back issues guys as always
you guys should do The Demon Bear Saga from New Mutants on Back Issues.
I'm so glad you brought up the Batman part LMAO
The Deus Ex Machina is enormous on this story.
Kyle Rayner is my favorite GL.
Caitlin Brewer the suit he wore during that time >>>>
Hey Sal, so I sent you a package on 1/20, so it should have been there abit ago. That has a legion of superheroes book in it. So you can regale the guys with more great moments from the legion while they battle the dominators.
The final night, the sun eater reminds me of the episode from Justice League TAS where Wally fights the league
And now theirs two Cyborg Supermen, the original and Supergirls father
1:46 - This is DC, not the Boys lmao Speaking of, definetely review the comic series The Boys, it's what the Amazon Prime series is based on.
this is a solid episode!
Thanks, John!
"Batman 24/7"??? There's potential there.
11:41 Gotta agree with Ben on this one. While I respect those that enjoy it, I've always hated Mister Miracle's suit design, especially the exposed mouth part of the mask. It's like a gimp suit at a clown convention.
It's such a small book and yet for some reason they couldn't include the Green Lantern issue with Hal's funeral.
this story was really fun
- I like the cyborg-superman. A good deal really. Thankx for uploading & sharing mo-fos.
Batman: 24/7 sounds like a fantastic idea.
Lol, parallax is my fav entity tho
"How can they talk in space?", "What's holding the energy of the fake sun?" When in doubt, the answer is... HYPERTIME!! xD
You kinda skipped the part where Hal Jordan says the Green Lantern Oath while he sacrifices himself.
4:46 I wonder what he does
come on guys, 3k morecsubs to 50k. we will get there and hopefully you will do another special. keep up the good work guys.
BACK ISSUES! nice
Thank you.
Could you guys do a Gotham academy book during June when the school year is ending.
The Spectre is an asshole. At least Deadman (who is seriously unappreciated) has no choice not to interfere, he’s like Death from Discworld, but Spectre is just sitting in his little space cloud and eating potato chips.
I've been waiting for this since Green Arrow: Quiver!
comic writers have no clue of how stars work😂 Final Night is not the only story with scientific inaccuracies, In Secret Wars Doom turns Johny Storm into the sun in battleworld
@29:45 I am disappointed that no one played off Ethan's setup. Ben... you have failed this channel!
Did you reference Arrow?
Oh my god, the commenters are gonna kill you! Run away! Run away!
@51:02 There we go. You are forgiven.
You guys should do the Authority now that wildstorm comics is being rebooted
Ooooo! Looking forward to _No Man's Land_! Is the plan to include _Cataclysm_ & _Aftershock_ as part of the same story line?
"A fake sun? What's it made of?"
"Well, sun lite, obviously."
-a joke no one is happy to hear/tell-
this is a intriguing review
yes Ethan is back.
yeah ethan is back!!!
When are you going to do Watchmen?!?!
+Robert Griffin Probably never
Literally commenting years later just to say Long Live the Legion!
Final Night? They fix the sun. False advertising.
please do watchmen on back issues
why havent you done a Watchmen back issues yet
Cool I didn't know this was an event
ASAP Speed O Sound Sonic *exactly*
